Biography

Rasmus regenerated on the battlefield, (AUDIO: Light The Flame) before the Daleks were briefly erased from history by the Valeyard. (AUDIO: Dreadshade)

After the Doctor regenerated on Karn, Rasmus travelled from the front to meet him accompanied by Commander Sanmar, taking pains to respect the Sisterhood of Karn’s traditions. He advised Sanmar on dealing with the Doctor’s TARDIS as they tried to repair it, but found the ship non-cooperative. The Doctor eventually came to meet him in his TARDIS and they learnt from Ohila that Sanmar had gone to Karn’s heart with Lithea, to Rasmus’ confusion as he was unaware of her orders. They discovered Sanmar had killed Lithea and wa planning to use dimensional extractors to take Karn’s heart to the Capitol for which Rasmus threatened to arrest her. After Sanmar was killed by Karn’s forces, Rasmus was shocked when the Doctor threanted to use her equipment to destroy Karn to take out an enemy-controlled war front that was approaching the planet and was relied when Sanmar’s superior, Commodore Tamasan, agreed to protect the planet in a time lock. Rasmus departed in his TARDIS, witnessing Karn disappearing before the time lock was in place due to the Sisterhood’s powers. With nothing to defend, he ordered Time Lord forces to disengage from the war front. (AUDIO: Light the Flame)

Rasmus sent Tamasan to give instructions to a contact on Atherea as part of a plan to deal with the Daleks’ time eradicator which was changing the outcome of recent battles by assassinating Time Lords crucial to victories before the battles. After the War Doctor altered the timeline by erasing the time eradicator from history, undoing the assassinations, Rasmus was aware of this and sent Tamasan to Atherea to congratulate him.
